Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Whenever a new peer is added to Netbird we have to add a CNAME record pointing the custom domain hostname to the Netbird peer domain hostname. That manual task is error-prone by over-looking a new peer.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a flag per custom domain to enable automatic synchronization of peer host names into the custom domain.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Manual creation/deletion of peer CNAME records in custom domains -> manual labour and error-prone.
  • External DNS resolver -> complex setup, single-point-of failure unless more complex redundant setup.
